Hello Everyone! As much as I love the way alphabet stickers look straight out of the package, sometimes it's fun to add a personal twist to them. There are a few different, easy ways to do this. With natural chipboard Thickers, the easiest (and neatest) way is to change the color of them by simply adding some ink.
You can also use your favorite Mister Huey's to change the color of small white alphas for an artsy look.
My challenge to you is to play designer and change the colors of your alphabet stickers and use them on a layout.
(supplies : October Add-On: Toe Stop, Hero Arts Shadow ink, Mister Huey's Honor Society, Mister Huey's Taxi, Uniball Signo)
What color will your alphabet stickers be? Will you ink, paint or mist? We can't wait to see your projects - post a comment with a link by October 8th for a chance to win a $5 gift card to the Studio Calico shop.










I used a pen from Ikea to add colour to some alpha stickers and some wood veneer people. So easy and effective!

I sanded the first alpha stickers and sprayed some Mister Huey's on them. For the second set, I just added some dots to highlight.

I coloured some Thickers with chalk ink to help them stand out a little.

Coloured in some foam Thickers with Mr. Huey's. I believe Amy shared this technique on her blog a little bit ago.
